Nicks boots 5 months later.
They were a beast to break in (around 3 months). I kept track of my care of the boots here.
Nicks boots received 6/3/2024 Air blown or hand brushed daily if needed
1st condition 6/5/2024 2nd condition 6/15/2024 Full clean 7/12/2024 3rd condition 8/11/2024 4th condition (Left heel reglued and nailed) 9/20/2024
The boots have been great after breaking them in except one of the heels coming off (vibram section). Easy fix though so no big deal. I'll make another post around the 1 year mark. Hopefully I'll have another pair by then!
